Wendigos (Until Dawn)
The Wendigos are one of the two main antagonists of the 2015 interactive drama survival horror video game Until Dawn. They are humans who have been changed by a Native American spirit into cannibalistic monsters after they ate the flesh of other humans around the North West Mines due to starvation after many days.
It is unknown how long they have lived in Blackwood Pines but it's suggested they've been around since before the first settlements. Long ago, a Native American tribe known as the Cree preserved the Blackwoods as well as it's wildlife, believing it would anger the mountain and unleash the Wendigo Curse but what they call, "A creature born from ice".
In 1893, the mine was opened on the site of rich deposits of tin and radium, but over the years the Cree warned the miners that they had unleashed the spirit that dwelled within the mountain, cursing the land and its inhabitants.
Around the 1950s, a structural failure caused part of the mine to cave in, trapping a group of miners. A rescue was mounted and the rescuers found that some of the miners survived after murdering and eating others due to starvation.
The survivors began to display unusual physiological characteristics, and a cover-up ensued as they were confined in the sanatorium for study. The staff observed and experimented on the miners as they mutated into Wendigos.
Eventually, the Wendigos broke out of confinement and slaughtered the sanatorium staff.
